Destin, Florida

Destin, Florida

Tired of the snow and cold where you live? If you live in or near the Southeast, you probably already know that Destin, Florida has great weather year-round, and it’s a great place to escape the cold for a long weekend with your honey or with your family. I didn’t know much about Destin until I started researching it recently, With soft, white sand, crystal clear waters, plenty of sunny days and a nice downtown area, Destin’s a fun and beautiful vacation destination. Check out some of the following hotels I’ve been looking into:

Pelican Beach Resort and Confernece Center

You have to look at the photos on the Pelican Beach site to get a feel for how beautiful Destin’s beaches are. Pretty, no? The resort itself is admittedly a little boxy looking from the outside, but it’s right on the beach, has two swimming pools, tennis courts, a video game room (really!) and a nice fitness center. The middle and top floors have stunning views.

Hilton Sandestin Beach & Golf Resort

Golf fanatics will drool over the four championship courses at this beautiful resort. All the rooms are suites, and they’re very large and comfy. This resort is only steps away from the turquoise waters of the ocean, too. The junior suites are perfect for families because they come with bunk beds.

Comfort Inn Destin

If you’re looking for very affordable accommodations in Destin, even if you have to walk a little farther to the beach, consider this Comfort Inn. (You only have to walk across the street to the beach in this case.)  It’s very highly rated, you get a deluxe free breakfast, and there’s both indoor and outdoor heated pools. Definitely request a balcony room – the views are absolutely stunning.
